Walz was actually in Nebraska when the massacre took place.

Jeff Walz revealed he is "100% opposed to all his ideology" in a series of Facebook comments this week, targeting his brother's far-left Democratic platform.

Jeff wrote: "The stories I could tell. (Tim is) not the type of character you want making decisions about your future."

When a social media user urged him to "get on stage" and endorse former President Donald Trump, Jeff implied the idea isn't completely off the table.

He replied: "I've thought long and hard about doing something like that! I'm torn between that and just keeping my family out of it."

The former battalion commander of Tim's National Guard unit, John Kolb, joined in on the attacks against the Minnesota governor by accusing him of embellishing his military record for political gain.

Kolb wrote: "I do not regret that Tim Walz retired early from the Minnesota Army National Guard, did not complete the Sergeants Major Academy, broke his enlistment contract or did not successfully complete any assignment as a Sergeant Major."

"Unwittingly, he got out of the way for better leadership. Thomas Behrends was the right leader at the right time. He sacrificed to answer the call, leaving his family, business and farming-partner brother to train, lead and care for soldiers. He earned the privilege of being called Command Sergeant Major."

"Like a great leader, he ran toward and not away from the guns."
